I live in this apartment, and host travelers like yourself in the other 3 rooms. This is the perfect spot for students, backpackers, and others on a budget, who still want to stay in one of the best neighborhoods in all of NYC, and have the entire city easily accessible by foot or subway. My goal is to offer this room at the lowest rate possible (less than half the price of local hotels and far cheaper than most Airbnb places in the neighborhood), so if you're looking for something super fancy, I encourage you to book elsewhere! I've made some minor changes to the apartment and furniture since these pictures were taken, so expect some slight differences.

This apartment is in a PRIME Williamsburg location right off of Bedford Avenue, which is the bustling main street that runs through the neighborhood.

Staying here is similar to a hostel environment (except that you get your own room!), where you'll have the opportunity to meet and interact with other travelers. The apartment is on the first floor of the building, and includes access to an open outdoor space. The room is small with no window, but spacious enough to comfortably accommodate 1 or 2 people. The bathroom is shared. The area is very safe, and the apartment has never had a problem with rodents, roaches, or bedbugs.

***THE NEIGHBORHOOD***

Williamsburg is the artistic and cultural heart of Brooklyn, with some of the best music and nightlife in NYC. Many would agree with me that this is the best neighborhood in the entire city. There are TONS of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, boutique stores, music venues, and everything else you can possibly imagine close by. When you check in, there'll be a list of some of my favorite spots in the neighborhood waiting for you in your room.

***GETTING AROUND***

The nearest subway stops are the Marcy J/M/Z (5 min walk) and the Bedford L (10 min walk), from which the entire city will be easily accessible. For subway & bus directions anywhere in the city, I recommend the website & app HopStop.

***STAYING HERE***

I always provide a clean room, with fresh sheets and towels for every guest.

You may check-in at your convenience, anytime after 4pm on the day of your arrival (even late at night). I cannot accommodate early check-ins, because other guests will be checking out the same day, however, you may drop your luggage off early if you need to.

Feel free to get in touch if you have any additional question or if there's anything I can help you with.

Please be aware that this is a residential building (not a hotel), and you'll be sharing the apartment with other Airbnb guests. Please be respectful of neighbors and other guests by keeping noise at a reasonable volume and cleaning up after yourself. I don't host children under 18 or pets (sorry!). Please don't book if you are at risk of transporting bedbugs (I've never had bedbugs here, and I'd like to keep it that way!). Other than that, enjoy your stay!!!

This was my 1st Airbnb experience and one that went completely smoothly. While I did not see Dom for a majority of my stay, he always responded in a timely manner when I messaged him using the Airbnb app. The room was smaller than I imagined, and some of the decor has changed. But it met my needs and delivered on what it said it would deliver on, so that's really all I could ask for.

Wonderful location, but that's the only positive. The room is not nearly as clean or inviting as it appears in pictures. I was very surprised by how uncomfortable the bed was but was grateful to only be there for one night.

The host gave us precise information. We did not see him, but he was very kind an offer us his help via email. He also allowed us to save our bags for few hours.
The cleanliness of the toilet and the walls of the apartment was not so good. The bed of our room was in a rather bad state.

Dom provided great directions to the apartment and was very quick to response to my messages. Room is not big, but adequate and comfortable. Though we can hear some people talking outside our room at times, the place is quiet overall and we rested well each night.
